Collective Lie-Poisson integrators on $\mathbf{R}^{3}$

We develop Lie-Poisson integrators for general Hamiltonian systems on $\mathbf{R}^{3}$ equipped with the rigid body bracket. The method uses symplectic realisation of $\mathbf{R}^{3}$ on $T^{*}\mathbf{R}^{2}$ and application of symplectic Runge-Kutta schemes. As a side product, we obtain simple symplectic integrators for general Hamiltonian systems on the sphere $S^{2}$.
